I’m not always a good friend. Sometimes I don’t reach out enough because I’m worried I’m bothering people who don’t really want to hear from me anyway. And I can convince myself that people don’t always want me as a friend. If I’ve ever done that to you, I apologize.
We hope to see you all at the protest today, and today's not the end! We're going to continue organizing, and you can help. Sign our petition; stay up to date via our mailing list; and after the protest, send us feedback on how things went, so we can improve. #NoAI #Vancouver #BigTech #DataCentres
No AI Vancouver@noaivancouver.bsky.social · 2mo agoOur organizers wrote an petition to the House of Commons, sponsored by MP @jennykwan.bsky.social, to stop the accelerated push for AI infrastructure and put power back in the hands of communities. All Canadians are welcome to sign! Please share widely! #canada #cdnpoli #noai #BigTech #DataCentres
"So, if I use ChatGPT you think less of me?" Yep. Hope this helps.
Today is the last day to join our friends at CAG in telling the city government that we don't want an AI data centre in Mount Pleasant! #vanpoli #vancouver #NoAI
Canadian Animation Guild - IATSE Local 938@cag938.bsky.social · 2mo agoCAG AI Data Centre Response Committee: We have until this Friday (June 12) to tell the City of Vancouver how we feel about the Mt Pleasant AI Data Centre! Comment period on the Planner Report for the 111 E 5th Ave rezoning app about to close!
"In the case of Stop! That! Train!, you can also go to your local drag show and tip your queens. Put your valuation of human-made art into action. Give a dollar (or better yet, $20 or $50!) to a real queer person making real queer art."
Mel Woods@melwoods.me · 2mo agoDoes knowing something was made using AI—even just a little bit—stop you from wanting to engage with it? Now that we know "Stop! That! Train!" did in fact use AI, how do we navigate a world where stuff like this is going to keep happening? New from me ✨ xtramagazine.com/culture/stop...
If you are commissioning an artist, and want a specific pose, don't run to genAI to try and make it for you. Draw a stick person. Stick person poses are beloved among all artists. We can see exactly what you want. Do not fear sending the stick person. The stick person is magical.
I do not want GenAI in fanart. I do not want GenAI in character design. I do not want GenAI in world design. I do not want GenAI in writing. I do not want GenAI in storyboarding. I do not want GenAI in voice acting. I do not want GenAI, period. If any piece of media uses GenAI, I don't want it.
A timely letter from CAG 938 President Eddy Pedreira re: AI Data Centres -
#widowsbay is really fun. You should check it out if you enjoy horror comedy and general eerie weird vibes if you have access to an Apple+ account. My friend Kyle Fines described it as “Twilight Zone” meets “The Chair Company” and he 100% nailed it.
Hey, Vancouver! There's a protest against those friggin data centers on saturday! I cannot make it due to a prior engagement doing a different kind of worker solidarity, but I encourage you to check it out! Lots of good people will be there.
Vancouver peeps. The city wants to start building data centres in town. Please take a moment to share your thoughts on this proposed projects. Just for the record, I am OPPOSED.
Jarrett P.@notcrucial.bsky.social · 3mo agoIf you're in the Vancouver area, you can oppose the latest proposal for data centers in Mount Pleasant. It takes under a minute to let the city know you're against these projects. Spread the word :) www.shapeyourcity.ca/111-e-5

Hi everyone! Are you a 🍁 Canadian Cartoonist Opposed to AI 🚫🤖? Do you want to tell the government about it? 📢 Read on! (Deadline Sunday March 15) 🧵
Back in 2021, while we were all still working from home, I started noodling around on this idea for a cartoon series pitch called “Theodore von Barnyard”. It was about a young Sasquatch who, after breaking in to a cabin in the woods and watching waaaay too many DVDs…
